“He will be sentenced on Oct. 29 and faces decades in prison.”
Wife’s trial delayed indefinitely.
See how easy that was? Now why is it so hard if there’s an R next to their name?
Because someone in the media whispers to them “hey yeah but wouldn’t in be fun if instead you spent the next 6 weeks trying unseat your own nominee” and they go “TAHTS’ SUCH A GOOD IDEA” and get busy on it
No one intervenes if the system goes after a Democrat, so it can all just happen as normal
The courts were stacked with Republicans. This is why local elections are just as or even more important than the national ones. Everything starts small.
Wait, so politicians can be held accountable for their crimes? When did that change?
He didn’t have the magic ® next to his name.
Oh politicians can be and are held accountable all the time. It’s conservative politicians who seem to get off scot-free
Now do Donald Trump, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and John Roberts.
And Moscow Mitch.
Let’s add Matt Gaetz to that list
Those guys didn’t get cartoonish bags of money and gold bars, just stock tips and fancy vacations and
RVsmotor homes. All above board according to the law.
He’s still a sitting Senator and won’t resign despite the NJ Governor Murphy calling for him to do so. The Senate will have to expel him, and then Murphy will appoint a replacement.
Do it. Do it now! Grab some media attention showing Democrats getting rid of their unethical members while the Republicans are celebrating theirs.
We need more of these dudes getting held accountable.
But he acted as a foreign agent in an official capacity!
I am so shocked that the guy googling “how much is an ounce of gold worth” was caught.
True story… when my kid got married and bought a house 5 years ago, I gifted them an ounce of gold. $1,800 then. $2,470.32.
So +$670.32! Yay!
But over 5 years? :(
$134.064 / year.
But over 5 years? :(
Erm - 6.5% interest rate is a decent inflation compensation. If there wasn’t a risk even with gold, I’d use gold as my “secure savings” account.
Random opinion: Ive never liked gold personally.
The problem with solid gold being a currency is even the smallest amount of gold that could be carried in small enough amounts to be used as currency would be a coin. A solid gold coin is roughly $2.5K.
You could break it up but you still have $625 pieces.
If we ever need to use gold to trade for food, you are looking at some expensive eggs.
I didn’t mean I would keep gold at home, but as someone fundamentally opposed to stock market investment, I would like to have a way to at least protect my savings from devaluation by inflation…
Oh, 100%. Gold is perfect for people that wish to avoid the stock markets. I even have a few coins myself.
I just find it ironic that if we ever needed to use our gold as a curreny, we would be fucked.
Just did the math - for all mined gold in the world (~200 thousand tons) at 9 billion people, that would give us 22.4 grams of gold as currency / personal property to spend at any given time, if no one on the world had any “savings”. Considering that a 100 K EUR would already buy ~1.37 kg of gold, that’s a bit of a mismatch…
This seems like a good post for a math sub for sure.
Bye Bob
And lo, the conservatives looked out for all the progressives and democrats who would defend this man as they would their own, and found none, because they’re not hypocritical pieces of shit.
Eat shit, Bob!

Lol! Trump committee treason and insurrection and literally nothing will happen to him… This guy’s going to jail.
Do as I say not as I do! S
